Just to review, The Fan Teaser was the creation of former Ann Arbor News Sports Editor Geoff Larcom. Longtime friend and fellow Ann Arbor News alum, Pat Schutte, took it to heights previously unknown. We aim to keep it alive here at The Sports Fan Project. The cropped photo and the accompanying clue give you an idea as to who or what the image is of. We invite you to use the Comment option to take a crack at solving the Teaser and, if you’re so inclined, participate in some good-spirited banter with your fellow sports fans. The Fan Teaser will appear each Friday morning with the reveal coming to you Sunday.

That a man repeats as US Open Tennis Champion since Federer?
Excellent guess, but ultimately a net service.
I think the photo is of a soccer player….and perhaps it is Messi?
With the expression on his face….it looks like he just got his “bell rung”!
Seems plausible based upon my recent whereabouts, but the big global sports story at the moment is occurring in New York not Buenos Aires.
